More quotes by Patrick Stump
You could be your own spotlight!
Patrick Stump
I love Korean food, and it's kind of like home to me. The area that I grew up in outside Chicago, Glenview, is heavily Korean. A lot of my friends growing up were Korean and when I would eat dinner at their houses, their parents wouldn't tell me the names of the dishes because I would butcher the language.

Speed is absolutely key to creativity. The more time it takes to create something, the less likely you are to create something.
Patrick Stump
There are two types of bands - there are the ones that are basically solo projects anyways, where there's clearly the one guy who's driving the ship and everyone else is just along for the ride. And then there was my band, where you have a few very disparate-taste, creative people who kind of meet in the middle somewhere.
Patrick Stump
He's writing what I'm singing, and I'm writing what he's playing.
Patrick Stump
I was going to record a solo album when I was 15 on a four-track. I started working on it, but then Fall Out Boy happened. The band was awesome and took me in a totally different direction. I don't regret it at all, but the band delayed the record I had been planning.
Patrick Stump
I don't mind if someone thinks I'm a sell out. I go to bed happy knowing I do what I do and I'm not doing anything for reasons of money, and if I were trying to pick up chicks, I'm doing a horrible job. And if I wanted to drive awesome cars, I'm doing a really bad job there too.
Patrick Stump
When you make art, you get really invested in it. When art happens by accident and you were just along for the ride? It's way more fun.
Patrick Stump
'As Long As I Know I'm Getting Paid' is a satire. Lyrically, I want to be direct. With my history in Fall Out Boy, there's some expectation that I'm going to be lyrically obtuse. But that song is a straight-faced satire of consumerism.
Patrick Stump
There's a certain fear of simplicity. I think that's the thing when you're younger as an artist you get this idea in your head that complexity equals quality. The more notes you're playing, the better.
Patrick Stump
The music that I made in my band wasn't the expression of everything I was into. Bands are based on compromise.
Patrick Stump
I don't believe any genre of music can be unilaterally dismissed (aside from like, white-power music or something).
Patrick Stump
You have total freedom. It's like, if you do a solo record, there are no restrictions and you can do whatever you want, good or bad. You can have these passing fancies where you go in to the studio one day and you want to do something like what you did on the way in. That's dangerous. You have to have some sort of focus.
Patrick Stump
The song that's affected me the most profoundly is probably Michael Jackson's 'Thriller,' or, more specifically, the couple seconds of instrumental break before Vincent Price starts 'rapping.'
Patrick Stump
Be yourself! Love your mom, but if she's trying to get you to be someone you're not, she's in the wrong
Patrick Stump
When you're No. 1 or No. 300, you still get to play and write the songs.
Patrick Stump
In reply to 'how do I flirt with people?': Just be yourself and not want anything out of anybody. Desire is the killer of all smoothness.
Patrick Stump
I look at albums like novels. If you write a really good scene or a really good moment, just because you wrote it, doesn't mean that it fits with the story that you're writing.
Patrick Stump
Most producers get into it because they were just never handsome or charismatic or talented enough to be the star.
Patrick Stump
I'd hate wearing suits every day.
